Housing Industry Association launch research division
The Housing Industry Association has launched a research division which will provide data and analysis to the property, financial services and government sectors.
The research body, called Australian Construction Insights, was launched at the 2014 HIA Building Better Cities Summit in Sydney last week.
ACI will issue research and in-depth analysis on the building and construction sector. It will also provide short and long-term outlooks on national and state economies, new home building, residential and non-residential construction and the renovations market, HIA national president Ron Dwyer said in launching the research body.
HIA chief economist Harley Dale has become ACI’s chief economist. Other members of the team include senior economist Shane Garrett, and economists Georgan Murray and Diwa Hopkins.
